Based on the youtube video it will be auctioned via a site called Bring A Trailer between Sept 10 and Sept 17.

Yes we are all aware of the auction, whats your skin in the game promoting the actions ?

I was only responding to the previous comment. Way out of my league.

whats the deal with what looks like a piece of sheet metal covering the transom?

Feel it was way undersold at $401k, especially when compared to what new lower level production powerboats are selling for and it's heritage. IMO it's the powerboating community's equivalent of the 1st Lemans winning Shelby Cobra.

Does anyone know who the buyer is?

Its a 200k boat with an additional 200k premium for its history. I have my doubts about whether the sale actually goes through.

Friend of mine has this model... 1 of 3 ever made. Was originally Bobby S boat. Made at the Apache plant.
I thought it's pretty cool.

I spy Mr Marine!!!
